Sinopse

Pin Fastening Impact reveals the surprising technological and historical significance of the humble pin, exploring its evolution from rudimentary fasteners to a catalyst for mass production. This book argues that the pin's development represents a crucial, often overlooked, turning point, influencing not only clothing construction but also laying the groundwork for standardized manufacturing practices across industries. For example, the shift from handmade pins to machine-made versions mirrors the broader industrial revolution, highlighting how seemingly small innovations can drive large-scale change. The book examines the pin's impact on garment construction, detailing how its availability enabled more elaborate designs and improved fit, and then traces its influence on manufacturing, showing how early pin factories pioneered techniques later adopted by other sectors. By drawing upon historical sources like patent records and fashion illustrations, Pin Fastening Impact offers a comprehensive perspective on this unassuming yet pivotal technology. The book progresses from early fastening methods to the pin's role in shaping fashion and industrial practices.

    Neem Karoli Baba known to his followers as Maharaj-ji - was a great Hindu guru, mystic and devotee of Lord Hanuman. He is very well known outside India for being the spiritual master of a number of prominent Americans who traveled to India in the 1960s and 70s, including spiritual teachers Ram Dass, Bhagavan Das, and musicians Krishna Das and Jai Uttal. His ashrams are in Kainchi, Vrindavan, Rishikesh, Shimla, Neem Karoli village near Khimasepur in Farrukhabad, Bhumiadhar, Hanumangarhi, Delhi in India and in Taos, New Mexico. Maharaji was a lifelong adept of bhakti yoga, and encouraged service to others (seva) as the highest form of unconditional devotion to God. 
     
    There can be no biography of him. Facts are few, stories many. He seems to have been known by different names in many parts of India, appearing and disappearing through the years. His non-Indian devotees of recent years knew him as Neem Karoli Baba, but mostly as “Maharajji” – a nickname so commonplace in India that one can often hear a tea vendor addressed thus. Just as he said, he was "nobody". He gave no discourses; the briefest, simplest stories were his teachings. Usually, he sat or lay on a wooden bench wrapped in a plaid blanket while a few devotees sat around him. Visitors came and went; they were given food, a few words, a nod, a pat on the head or back, and they were sent away.

    Sociology is the systematic study of society, human behavior, and social interactions. It explores how individuals relate to one another and how social structures, such as institutions, norms, and values, shape these interactions. The origins of sociology can be traced back to the early 19th century when scholars began to analyze the effects of rapid social changes brought about by industrialization, urbanization, and political revolutions. Auguste Comte, a French philosopher, is often credited with founding sociology and introducing the idea that societies evolve through distinct stages of development, which he described as the theological, metaphysical, and scientific stages. Comte emphasized the importance of using scientific methods to study society, laying the groundwork for the discipline's emergence as a formal field of study. 
    Sociology seeks to understand the underlying patterns and structures that govern social life. It examines topics such as social roles, institutions, class structures, race, gender, and family dynamics. Sociologists use various methods to study society, including surveys, interviews, participant observation, and statistical analysis. These methods allow them to identify trends, uncover social inequalities, and explain how social change occurs. For example, Emile Durkheim, one of the early pioneers of sociology, studied the causes of suicide and concluded that social integration and regulation significantly influence individuals' behavior. His work demonstrated that even personal actions have social underpinnings, highlighting the importance of understanding the broader social context.

    Catherine of Siena (who lived from March 25, in 1347 to April 29th, in the year 1380), a Dominican laywoman, was a mystic, activist, and writer who impacted Italian literature and the Catholic Church significantly. She was canonized in 1461 and is a Medical professional of the Church. 
    She was born and raised in Siena and, regardless of her parents' desires, desired dedicate her life to God from an early age. She ended up being a member of the "mantellate," a casual Dominican spirituality group of pious women, mainly widows. Pope Gregory XI's choice to leave Avignon for Rome was affected by her impact. He then dispatched her to Florence to organize a peace treaty. 
    She went back to Siena after Gregory XI's death and the peace agreement was signed. Her spiritual writings, The Discussion of Divine Providence, were determined to secretaries. Catherine of Siena accompanied the pope to Rome as a result of the Great Schism of the West. She wrote some letters to princes and cardinals, advising them to obey Pope Urban VI and protect the "vessel of the Church." She passed away on April 29th, 1380, tired from her stringent fasting. In Rome's Basilica of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, Urban VI held her funeral service and burial. 
    Let’s explore the exceptional life of this catholic saint, who made a significant impact on the culture, the city, and the entire country at the time.

    From where do attachment and detachment come? - 24 August 1965  
    • What is the relationship of the brain to the totality of the mind? 
    • Fear of not being, fear of isolation, fear of not having pleasure, fear of having 
    no relationship, is the soil from which the stem of contradiction grows. 
    • I want to be free of this stem to see what happens if there is no attachment, no 
    detachment, because I am not afraid. 
    • Is there a peace with no entity saying, ‘I am peaceful’?
